- messages is immutable bit is set.

- debug without a flood of signals.

+- 2 new scripts, dvd-writepart and dvd-freespace, in the scripts directory,
+ which are designed to be used as parameters to Write Part Command and
+ Free Space Command. They need the dvd+rw-tools to be installed
+ (http://fy.chalmers.se/~appro/linux/DVD+RW/).
+- Part files support: File volumes can now be splitted in multiple
+ files, called "parts".
+- Python scripting support:
+ A Python script will be called at particular points or conditions
+ in Bacula called Events. The currently defined Events are called:
+
+ StartJob, EndJob, NewVolume
+
+ Where StartJob is called before the RunBeforeJob, EndJob is called
+ after RunAfterJob, and NewVolume, is called before all other
+ "methods" of obtaining a new Volume name, when one is needed.
+
+ The Python script of the same name as the Event name (but with a .py)
+ is called from the Scripts Directory (a directive defined in the
+ Director resource). Note, both the Filename, and the name of
+ the function in the file must correspond to the Event name.
+
+ Once the Python script gets control, it can have access to Bacula
+ variables by doing:
+
+ import bacula
+
+ The script is called with one argument, typically called jcr. This
+ argument *must* be used to access each bacula function. The
+ format of the call is slightly different for reading Bacula
+ variable and for writing bacula variables. See below.
+
+ Bacula variables can be read with:
+
+ jcr.get("Variable-name")
+
+ where jcr is the argument passed to the function, and Variable-name
+ is on of the following:
+
+ JobId, Client, Pool, Storage, Catalog, MediaType, NumVols, DirName,
+ Level, Type, Job, JobName, JobStatus
+
+ Bacula varibles can be set using Python keyword arguments:
+
+ jcr.set(VolumeName="xyz")
+
+ The two currently implemented writable "variables" are:
+
+ VolumeName and JobReport
+
+ It is possible to submit a Bacula run command with the following:
+
+ jcr.run("run kernsave client=Matou storage=File")
+
+ this function returns the JobId of the job that was started. If
+ there is an error, the return value is zero.
+
+ Example:
+
+== File EndJob.py ===
+import bacula
+
+def EndJob(jcr):
+ jobid = jcr.get("JobId")
+ client = jcr.get("Client")
+ jcr.set(JobReport="EndJob output: JobId=%d Client=%s.\n" % (jobid, client))
+ if (jobid < 5) :
+ startid = jcr.run("run kernsave")
+ print "Python started jobid=", startid
+
+ return 1
+====
+
+== File NewVolume.py ===
+import bacula
